The food is so good and the customer service is great! I would definitely recommend this place and come again (:

Best little hammer place in town! Better than the chain fast foods and better prices. Good portion sizes. The fries are the best!!!Deluxe Burger, Fish Sandwich, Corn Dogs-awesome! Sometimes we go just for the Boston milk shakes. read more

This was my second time in Sanger. I was meeting buddies from the skate park, and I needed something to eat. When one asked what I wanted to eat, I replied that I wanted burgers. Usually, it's tacos or burgers or pizza, and I'd already had pizza in town. He replied Big Mamas, and I thought about a movie with a 400 pound woman running a house of ill repute, not a burger joint. When we arrived, it seemed as if it was in transition. The parking lot was the most stable-looking part of the place. Still, I've eaten at a number of hole-in-the-wall places and it didn't bother me. I needed a restroom, as the trip from Bakersfield had been almost 2 hours--about 30 minutes from SR99 to Sanger. My buddy said that the restroom was in the back. I went there and it was locked. I asked for the key to the restroom, and we ordered. I was told that there was no public restroom. I was a customer, though. After paying and another request, the counter person talked to someone else, and returned to tell me to meet her around back. They unlocked the door, requesting that I re-lock it. It took a while for the order. I ordered a #4 combo--the fish sandwich, fries, and drink. My companions ordered 3 Boston shakes and an iced tea. The fish sandwich, without tartar sauce, was great. The fries were okay. There was a lot of ice in the drink. There was only a $1.00 difference between the small and large shakes but the large shakes were way too much. read more

Big Mama's is THE fast food spot to visit if you're anywhere near Sanger or Reedley, California. They carry a variety of fast food favorites including burgers, burritos, corn dogs, chicken strips, fries, jalapeno poppers and shakes. Locals in the know go there for the best deals - 2 corn dogs or 2 burritos for $.99 or 2 deluxe burgers $2.00 (they all seem to refer to this as the 2 for 2). It was definitely a fast food burger, but with a lot of shredded lettuce, fresh tomato slices, and pickles. It's not the absolute best burger I've ever had, but it was pretty darn good for a fast food burger and a bargain at that price. I had a spirited discussion with the friend I went with about whether or not it was better than an In-n-Out Burger; She said yes - I said no. The jalapeño poppers were crispy golden brown with not a hint of grease. Be careful, though, on my first bite the creamy cheesy filling 'popped' out and burnt the inside of my lip. Take a tip from me and let them cool off a little first! The fries were crispy crinkle cut and just starting to brown on the edges. No grease here, either, and the large size fries is HUGE - definitely enough for two people to share. The large (32 oz) sodas were $.99 each. We didn't order the milkshakes but were intrigued by the fact that there were regular milkshakes and Boston milkshakes. We asked the person working the counter who said that the Boston milkshakes were 1/2 milkshake and 1/2 sundae. Someone else will have to check these out for me. Currently, the only seating is outdoors at the picnic tables but they are at least covered. read more

Big Mamas - Shrimp dinner! - Burgers Near Me - Sanger, California

A nice gem in this little town. Well loved by locals and visitors alike. Definitely a dive, no frills here. Big Mama's is a little old house. They take your order from a little window and you wait outside. Half of the folks ate there and the other half to go. There's plenty of shaded seating but only one trash can! Greeted with a smile even though she was very busy, the cashier was patient as we placed our order. It took a little bit to get our order: 3 burgers, fries, onion rings, a soda and shake. Everything was made to order which made it worth it. No order was too large for them! The hot foods were hot and the beverages were cold. We had paid for a Boston shake which we didn't get. I took it back and it was replaced on the spot. As we waited, chatted with one of the friendly, old time locals who shared how Big Mama's and the Chuck Wagon (another local fave) have evolved over the years. The food was very tasty! I especially liked the old school crinkle cut fries which were crispy and nicely seasoned. Yup, the onion rings with ranch. Everything with ranch! We were stuffed! Extra napkins please! The prices are moderate and becoming competitive with the national fast food chains however. They need to update their menu board. The prices have gone up since the last Yelper posted a photo of it.The specials are still about the same, like their 2fers. The place would be even more top notch if they had the extra help. The "Help Wanted" sign looked like it'd been up there for awhile. Was worth the 1/2 hour drive from north Fresno! read more

I lived in Sanger for a short time, and there aren't many places to choose from. But this little gem was one of my favorites. Anyway, moved out of Sanger, got preggers and had an immense craving for Big Mamas. Finally drove out to get some. What you should know; It's affordable! It's tasty! You have to have a Boston shake. If you want a burger, it's better than a fast food chain. I was really sad they stopped serving the fried mushrooms, but maybe that's a good thing since they're super fattening. They aren't super fast, but that just means they're making it all as you order. And the jalepeno poppers are pre-made. Probably from the box... But they're still good. If you're in town, and you don't want Dicicco's (the only other good place to eat) then hit Big Mamas. read more

Big Mamas - Burgers Near Me - Sanger, California

My favorite place to eat in Sanger! I love the chocolate Boston shake, and the shrimp basket. The shrimp basket comes with fries, a salad, fried shrimp, and slice of bread. The employees are really nice, and they have a little tip jar by the register, too, so don't forget to show them some love for working so hard to make great food! A great deal for the money, and delicious every time! Thanks Big Mamas!! You guys are awesome. read more

Big Mamas - The shrimp basket is my favorite! And you can't skip the Chocolate Boston Shake. :) - Burgers Near Me - Sanger, California

I commute to Sanger three times a week for work and once in a while I would stop at Big Mamas for lunch. The two burger for $3.40 is a steal. Amazing burgers and the soda is largeeeee! Definitely give it a try. At first I was a bit sketchy, because of the outside, but it's definitely good burgers. You won't regret it. read more

When I moved to Sanger around 8th grade this restaurant was still just a small burger joint. I would always order the deluxe burgers and fries. Fast forward 15 years later, they still taste the same as I remembered!!! Deluxe burgers with cheese, fries, and ranch. One of my favorite Sanger restaurant!!! read more

It's ok food and ok prices. But they nickel and dime you for everything that comes on the burger. Even their sauce if you ask for more the charge you for it... and to top it off if you pay with a card they add an additional.50 without telling you. I will never come here again read more

Big Mamas - The store front - Burgers Near Me - Sanger, California

Never disappointing burger joint old style burgers and fries always on point, my to go to is #7 with large root beer

I gave it three stars because it didn't make me sick. Took the short drive up there and the parking lot was full and several people were waiting. Good signs right? I order a plain cheeseburger with fries and an unsweet tea. Price was not bad either. And I waited, and waited, and waited. People were even in their cars until their orders were called. I was like YES this will be epic!! Finally after about 20 mins I got my food and hurried home. Upon opening my food I saw they had crinkle fries, YES! then I opened the burger and was disappointed. I was thinking Big Mama's was going to be like a hand flattened patty grilled to perfection. It looked like a Sam's Club patty. You know the ones you get out the case? Not knocking on Sam's Club, BUT someplace called Big Mama's should have like real beef patties. The fries were great. The unsweet tea tasted like I was the only one who ordered it that day and it had been sitting out since the am. So I continue my search for great food in Sanger. read more

It's ok, a lot people like it my family does not. They take long time and never get it right. I have allergies so I need some things off I've told them this. They are good if you don't ask for anything special read more

If you call in an order dont expect it to be ready for pickup, they make it once you get there. Oh and hope you enjoy old Fries and Cold burger....not going back. read more

I asked for no onions, but they still gave them to me. I returned it for a new one. The new berger comes out in 30 sec and I still find bits of onions.

Love this little hole in the wall looks like a little house. I always order the Texas burger, fries, and strawberry banana Boston shake! So good! read more

The wait is always horrible and the food isn't great, maybe mediocre. Be prepared to wait at least 30 minutes for your food. I have been a few times now, and maybe it's more nostalgia than anything else as to why it's popular? read more

Better than I remembered. It's been a few years since I've gone. I remember the quality was starting to suffer. However, decided to give it a try again and ordered takeout last week. I was pleasantly surprised. The quality is back. I'll be going more often. read more

Hole in the wall place with good food at a great price! I always call in my orders and pick up through the drive through to save time. Favorites: Texas Bacon Burger, Deluxe Burger (2 for $2), corn dog (2 for $1), fries (has seasoned salt), Boston shake. The Boston shake is good. Flavor choices are pineapple, banana, chocolate, strawberry, cherry, and possibly more. So the Boston shake starts with your choice of shake flavor (i.e. Chocolate) on the bottom, then vanilla ice cream, topping flavor (i.e. Chocolate syrup), whip cream, peanuts, and a cherry on top. Favorite flavor banana because they use fresh bananas to make the shake. This place is good for a hole in the wall. Tip: Take your food to go :) read more

Big mamas is my guilty pleasure when I'm in Sanger. I like that it's hot and fresh when I get order it. (Hate cold food) Love the shakes and ice cream for dessert or with the burgers. Yum! read more

I drove into town with my girlfriend to meet up with one of our friends. I've passed through Sanger before, but I've never really stayed around to try some local food spots. Upon hearing this, my friend immediately recommended Big Mama, and I was very glad that he did. The restaurant is quite literally a house, and the food feels like a family meal. My girlfriend had a Tiny Burger, I had the corn dogs, and our friend had burritos. The food was good, but what really impressed me what the atmosphere. It really felt like we were hanging out a friend's backyard with food like back in the day. Great place, I can't wait to come back. read more

Big Mamas - Texas Burger with Fries is so good! - Burgers Near Me - Sanger, California

Really bad service . I called and order was told to come in10 mins.. By the time I arrived they didn't have my order ready. They told me they don't make your food til u get there. Ok then what's the point of ordering first on the phone? Anyway I was patiently waiting for it. And while I was waiting there were others ordering after me. Those people that ordered after me got their food before I did. So I went up to counter and asked what was taking so long for mine? She told me my corn dogs takes longer time. So I told her forget my order of corn dogs. Just give me the money back and my burgers. So anyway my dogs were ready and now I have to wait for my burgers. Let me remind u I have been waiting for 30 mins. This is fast food.first time going there never going back there anymore. Greasy food and bad customer service. Oh yeah the double Texas bacon burgers we order were dry and got no flavor. read more

My favorite burger place in Sanger. Used to eat here regularly when I lived in the area and before they moved to their new location. Fries, burgers, shakes, you can't go wrong! read more

What can I say , Big Mama's it's one of those home town places to eat at. They have a lot of things to choose from and everything is a a good price. Its hard to beat their $2 for $2 burgers and I think they have the best french fries in town. And they make a good milk shake as well. There are times when you might have to wait in line for 10 mins or so but what you get for the price is hard to beat. I have been coming here for years even before they moved. I do miss being able to go in and dine but i still like the food. And you can always call in a order to be picked up read more

Burgers and Fries- COME HERE! If you are in the area-stop on by! Great value- 2 Deluxe burgers for $2.25-lettuce-tomato-pickle no extra charge Seasoned fries -yum! Outdoor seating-the menu is simple-well priced and honest! read more
